Working on some ideas for flow in my next handstand class…
As you can see-balance can be a tricky game. But, that is where the growth happens. Working to find your way back. Being in your breath-appreciating the struggle and coming back to balance. Perfection is boring. We show up on our mats to do the work. Some days it all flows and other days it is a struggle. Our job is to explore and accept where we are.

The video is sped up-lol-watch the trees in the window.

Hope to see you Saturday. Compression is the name of our game. ✌🏼

Progressions! Growth comes from repetition and continued challenge. Something I learned this morning. Your brain reacts better when it has a bit of glucose!

So next Saturday have an OJ pre handstand class and being those socks back! Saturday 12:15. On the Mat.

The body and the way we move is so fascinating. Our brains and our nervous systems have so much say in our movement! The brain loves a good map and predictability. But…it also craves (and needs) novelty or new maps to follow to continue to stay nimble!

We will be exploring a familiar entry and a new one in our handstand flow class at OTM this Saturday. There will be time to practice your favourite route/map to handstand-but also try new ones!

And all of the other good stuff too! CARs, mobility, core, strength, flexibility, BREATH, and movement.

Hope you can join me!

There is a lot of discussion around what makes an advanced practice. Many people now say it isn’t handstands-it is being able to meditate.

I feel that there are many levels to an “advanced practice”. To me it is neither handstands or meditation. It is being able to know yourself in every pose/seat/breath. To be able to understand where you are in this moment and to practice in a way that honours that. To able to be in a challenging pose like handstand and be able to feel calm and find your breath. To be able to find a meditation seat and be in the seat-not a million miles away.

Same same. But different. But the same.

Thoughts?

And-I am teaching a handstand class at on the mat Saturdays 12:15 to 1:30pm! We will work with your nervous system throughout the class. I will do my best to give you the tools to feel safe to try all of the things and options for everything as well.

Handstand Flow starts Sept 26th at On the Mat in Halifax! Class runs from 12:15-1:30pm

I have experienced it ALL. My journey began with immense fear; unable to even kick up to the wall!

I have had many incredible teachers on my path to practicing handstands. Each one has unlocked something new along the way. I will share with you what I have learned along my path to going upside down!

Handstand is the first thing a student in gymnastics learns! (i never took gymnastics-but this is what I have been told!) it comes easy to some and is an immense block for others.

In my classes we will discuss safety, your nervous system, mobility, stability, strength, flexibility, gaze… all of the things. AND then we will toss it all to the side and put what we have learned into a simple flow to get out of your head from analyzing as much as possible into experiencing.

It is hard work. No lie-but it is also so fun and extremely uplifting, empowering and playful.

You could be the person in video 1 or 2 and anywhere along the spectrum. ALL are welcome.

Join me! Space is limited! ✌🏼❤️

For the next 3 or 4 weeks I will be teaching a progression toward headstand. Starting with the basics-where to place your head-how to set your arms-where to push-safety of the neck. As we move from step to step you can stay in your comfort zone and keep practicing what feels available to you-and if you feel ready-progress. Through this you will learn the how. It is known as the king of asana. Sirsasana.

Come out and explore and play.

On the Mat in Halifax.
9:30am Wednesdays and 5pm on Thursdays.
